Homecoming: Macdonald Researchers Changing our Lives, Changing our World
Les chercheurs et chercheuses de Macdonald améliorent nos vies et notre monde


SATURDAY, OCTOBER 21, 2023
10 AM TO 10:45 AM EDT

The 15th Conference of the Parties (COP15) to the United Nations Convention on
Biological Diversity (CBD) was held in Montréal, Quebec, the seat of the UN CBD
Secretariat, in December 2022. At that meeting, governments from around the
world agreed to the Kunming-Montréal Global Biodiversity Framework, a historic
global framework to safeguard nature and halt and reverse biodiversity loss,
putting nature on a path to recovery by 2050. As is the case for all global
environmental issues, it is imperative that we think globally and act locally,
while acknowledging the important roles and contributions of Indigenous Peoples
and local communities as custodians of biodiversity and partners in the
conservation, restoration and sustainable use. 


Macdonald Campus is the largest private land holding on the island of
Montrealand one of the island's largest and most biodiverse green spaces.
MacdonaldCampus and McGill University are both biodiversity hotspots and global
centers of biodiversity research, teaching, and monitoring.  This presentation
will showcase what Macdonald Campus students and staff are doing to make our
campus and our world a better and more biodiverse place. The presentation will
also encourage us to act locally and globally, as a campus and a community, and
in partnership with Indigenous peoples and local communities, in support of
Kunming-Montréal Global Biodiversity Framework commitments to safeguard nature,
halt and reverse biodiversity loss, and put nature on a path to recovery by
2050.


Professor Murray Humphries, PhD'01, McGill Northern Research Chair and Director
of CINE (Centre for Indigenous Peoples' Nutrition and Environment) will kick
start our Biodiversity themed programming with an interesting discussion on The
Biodiversity of Macdonald Campus and McGill University: from backyards to biomes
and across the people-nature divide. PhD student Jacqueline Hamilton will talk
about how people interact with trees in and outside forests, including a brief
foray into trees on the Macdonald Campus.


La 15e Conférence des Parties (COP15) à la Convention des Nations unies sur la
diversité biologique (CDB) a eulieu en décembre 2022 à Montréal, au Québec,
siège du Secrétariat de la Convention sur la diversité biologique des Nations
Unies. À cette occasion, les gouvernements du monde entier ont adopté le Cadre
mondial pour la biodiversitéde Kunming-Montréal, un cadre mondial historique
pour préserver la nature, freiner et renverser la perte de biodiversité, afin de
placer les milieux naturels sur la voie du rétablissement d'ici 2050. Comme
c'est le cas pour toutes les questions environnementales mondiales, il est
impératif de penser globalement et d'agir localement, tout en reconnaissant la
contribution et le rôle importants des Autochtones et des communautés locales en
tant que gardiens de la biodiversité et partenaires dans la conservation, la
restauration et l'utilisation durable de celle-ci. Le campus Macdonald est la
plus grande propriété foncière privée de l'île de Montréal et l'un des espaces
verts les plus vastes et les plus riches en biodiversité de l'île. 


Le campus Macdonald et l'Université McGill sont à la fois des hauts lieux de la
biodiversité et des centresmondiaux de recherche, d'enseignement et de
surveillance de la biodiversité. Cette présentation montrera ce que les
étudiants et le personnel du campus Macdonald font pour que notre campus et
notre monde soient meilleurs et plus riches en biodiversité. La présentation
nous encouragera aussi à agir localement et globalement, en tant que campus et
communauté, et en partenariat avec les peuples autochtones et les communautés
locales, pour soutenir les engagements du Cadre mondial pour la biodiversité
Kunming-Montréal afin de préserver la nature et freiner et renverser la perte de
biodiversité, et de placer les milieux naturels sur la voie du rétablissement
d'ici 2050. 


 Le professeur Murray Humphries, Ph. D 2001, titulaire de la Chaire de recherche
nordique et directeur du CENEPA (Centre d'études sur la nutrition et
l'environnement des peuples autochtones) lancera notre programmation sur le
thème de la biodiversité par une discussion intéressante intitulée The
Biodiversity of Macdonald Campus and McGill University: "from backyards to
biomes and across the people-nature divide". La doctorante Jacqueline Hamilton
parlera de la façon dont les gens interagissent avec les arbres dans et hors des
forêts, et fera une brève incursion sur les arbres du campus Macdonald.
